Light leaf spot (Pyrenopeziza brassicae) : a resurgent problem in the UK
(2014)
Since 2006, the incidence and severity of light leaf spot (Pyrenopeziza brassicae) in winter oilseed rape in the UK has increased so that the disease is now the main disease concern for growers with respect to yield loss. ...
Arable crop disease control, climate change and food security
(2013-08)
Global food security is threatened by crop diseases that account for average yield losses of 16%. Climate change is exacerbating threats to food security in much of the world, emphasising the need to increase food production ...
Erratum: The impact of climate change on disease constraints on production of oilseed rape (vol 2, pg 143, 2010)
(2011-03)
Weather data generated for different parts of the UK under five climate change scenarios (baseline, 2020s low CO2 emissions, 2020s high emissions, 2050s low emissions, 2050s high emissions) was inputted into weather-based ...
Impacts of climate change on phoma stem canker and light leaf spot on UK oilseed rape
(2011)
To illustrate impacts of climate change on plant disease epidemics, an oilseed rape crop growth model, and weather-based disease forecasting models for phoma stem canker (Leptosphaeria maculans) and light leaf spot ...
Arable crop disease control, climate change and food security
(Association of Applied Biologists, 2011)
Global food security is threatened by crop diseases that account for average yield losses of 16%. Climate change is exacerbating threats to food security in much of the world, emphasising the need to increase food production ...
Effects of Leptosphaeria maculans race structure and fitness cost of virulence on management of phoma stem canker of oilseed rape
(2011)
Fitness of virulent (avrLm1 and avrLm4) or avirulent (AvrLm1 and AvrLm4) isolates of Leptosphaeria maculans on Brassica napus without the corresponding resistance genes Rlm1 and Rlm4 was investigated in controlled environment ...
Adaptation to increasing severity of phoma stem canker on winter oilseed rape in the UK under climate change
(2010-12)
Various adaptation strategies are available that will minimize or negate predicted climate change-related increases in yield loss from phoma stem canker in UK winter oilseed rape (OSR) production. A number of forecasts for ...
Fitness cost of virulence differs between the AvrLm1 and AvrLm4 loci in Leptosphaeria maculans (phoma stem canker of oilseed rape)
(2010-02)
To investigate whether the reported fitness cost of virulence at the AvrLm4 locus in Leptosphaeria maculans is common to other loci, near-isogenic (NI) isolates differing at AvrLm1 locus were produced in vitro. Fitness of ...
Geostatistical analysis of the distribution of Leptosphaeria species causing phoma stem canker on winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus) in England
(2010-02)
In June/July 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2006, regional variation in distribution of the pathogens Leptosphaeria maculans and L. biglobosa that are causally associated with phoma stem canker was surveyed on winter oilseed rape ...
